Please check your library, either on Ravelry or the Hooked on Sunshine website (depending on where you purchased), for weekly pattern part releases.

Hooked on Christmas is worked to make a 118 x 118cm blanket.
The blanket is made up of squares. You can make your blanket as large or as small as you like by adapting the number of squares used.

It uses US terminology.

Skill level - Intermediate

Material list:

• Any yarn of your choice – I used Colourspun DK cotton (50g/125m) for Colourway 1 and 2 – 4mm hook.
• Hook applicable to your yarn weight.
• Needle for sewing in ends.
• Stitch markers.
• 6m x 4mm red ribbon for Colourway 1 (optional).

In the prelude of the pattern you will find detailed stitch tutorials, yarn quantities used for both colourways and many more bits of useful info!
Round for round instructions with each part.
Detailed photo tutorials with each part.
Print Friendly files for each part - pattern files without photo tutorials (there is no print friendly file for The Prelude).

The pattern has been designed in cotton but is suited to most yarns. If you are not working the pattern in my choice of yarn, your yarn quantities may differ.
Selecting multiple colours to work the pattern will also increase the quantity of yarn used. Yarn thickness, hook size and tension will affect the overall size of the blanket.

Throughout the written pattern there are detailed photo tutorials.
We also have video tutorials available to purchase at:
